"Amazing Guitar"

Overall: 5 out of 5 stars

I ordered this guitar on a Wednesday night around 11 pm with standard free shipping and it showed up at my doorstep saturday. I was so excited to see it, upon opening it it was exactly how i pictured it. It is such a beautiful guitar for the price. I loved the fact that the guitar had a bone nut and saddle. It makes the playability so much better and its a great addition to the guitar for the price. I also really love the Fishman pre amp with the built in tuner. Really makes tuning it up quick, easy, and accurate. Overall its a great guitar with no problems. Plays great and sounds even better. Cordoba guitars are great and id recommend them to anyone.

"Love the Guitar"

Overall: 5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
Verified Customer zZounds has verified that this reviewer made a purchase from us.
I took a chance on this guitar based on reviews and history of Cordoba. The guitar is beautiful and feels sturdy. It’s a light guitar but this is a plus for using it without a strap or just sitting down. The tone is balanced and warm; thanks to the cedar top. It’s ready to go, once tuned, right out of the box. If you’re looking for a classical guitar to start a classical journey, the Cordoba C5 is it.

"Disappointing and I don''t like the aspect of having to ship back a defective product at my own expense."

Overall: 1.5 out of 5 stars

Can't tell. I am doing good with my present one though.
Sound
I bought the same Cordoba C5-CE guitar after I returned the one I bought from you and which I paid $63,00 to Fedex to ship it back. The Cordoba C5CE that I recently purchased at Allegro Music Store in Fremont , California has a great sound. The store owner explained to me that the trouble might be on the way you store this products. He said that it was not stored in an ideal location and weather condition hence the buzzing sound. The one that I bought from you does not have a solid sound on the 2nd and 3rd strings. Overall, it sounded like a cheapy guitar and not worthy of the Cordoba brand.
Features
The components and materials that were used to produce it were good and overall appearance is great
Ease of Use
I was not able to get a good sound from it although it was very playable.
Quality
It was well built but the sound was not solid.
Value
The selling price is reasonable but with the sound that I got , it seemed like a rip-off.
Manufacturer Support
I have not personally talked to a Cordoba company representative except the ZZounds people.
The Wow Factor
I liked the gig bag.

Musical Background:

I have been playing music and guitar for as long as I can remember. I play professionally.

Musical Style:

"worst guitar ever"

Overall: 1 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
Verified Customer zZounds has verified that this reviewer made a purchase from us.
I've had three of these. All three after a year or so the bridges pulled off.... bang. open the case to a mess of strings and the bridge ripped off the guitar. Sending back the third guitar and HOPING for one that doesn't fail. What a PITA. I've owned a lot of guitars, some of them for over 40 years and have NEVER had a bridge that just pulled off. Really tired of paying for shipping to get a new guitar under warranty. Keep hoping the next one will will be better but so far just have been disappointed. Really regret buying a Cordoba..

I expect to have this for at least 5 yrs before upgrading. When I do I will look for every thing this guitar has the preamp and tuner.
Sound
The sound is a little thin acousticaly but is excellent when pluged in to either a little Fender amp or the Yamaha efx 212 Pa system.
Features
The tuner is the best part about this product.
Quality
The only thing that didn't warrant a 10 is the tuners on it. Other than that the fit and finish is excellent.
Value
Haven't played any thing else to compare it to but it is I feel worth the price that I paid.
Manufacturer Support
Haven't had to
The Wow Factor
Very good appeal the smaller neck feels better than a standard classical neck.
